Have to come out and win this one. If you are serious about staying on the right side of the bubble... have to win this one

"It's a must win because of the following 3 games.
If they go 2-2 that would be good.
1-3 and they'll be on life support.
0-4 dead"

Well 0-1, which means we gotta go 2-1 in the 3 road games.
I'd say Creighton is our most winnable game, you gotta get that.
We're gonna get smacked at Duke, then go to a top 10 Marquette, we'll be looking at 1-3 cause I don't know how we'll win at Marq, but you just gotta.

Today's loss hurt real bad.

You would really enjoy Jai Alai.

We are on the WRONG side of the bubble by any metric you care to quote!

I don't think bubbles have "sides" (sorry, just trying to lighten the gloomy mood here).

My updated feel about this team...
We are good!
We are just not that good...
and of course, every team
In the league can beat every other team so nothing - no W and no L - would surprise me for the balance of our schedule.
Glad young Mr. Williams got some PT - and I wish Shamorie was more selfish shooting the ball today.
all the best.
 
Creighton is a tough place to win
They'll have 17,000 fans packing the arena screaming their brains out
We'll have to be on our "A" game to win
That is, if we have an "A" game
My heart says we can win this game but my wallet isn't so sure

Might be smart to listen to your wallet.

At 9 1/2 or even 7 1/2 it was a good bet. That spread was way too high. Should have been 3-4.

I usually do
One time I didn't was when I got married almost 47 years ago
 
I'm gonna go out on a limb and try real hard to keep my optimistic outlook (believe me it has faded). Nobody expected back to back wins vs duke and at nova last year and nobody expects us to sweep the next 3 on road at Creighton duke and Marquette. Let's see the headlines AFTER we sweep em do I really believe this???

Agreed, this line was off, as was the UNLV-SD St. line.
 
The season is over if we lose this game, plain and simple. No way we come back from 3-6 with our next 2 at Duke and Marquette. Would not shock me if PC sweeps us now that their stud freshman Reeves is back.

I thought that was a joke, is that right the spread yesterday was 9 1/2/7 1/2? What?

I believe it went down to -7.5. If I were not rooting for SJU I would have bet the game!
